Desperately searching for He/Him
Instead, I found Bad Man Tim
With a record longer than the longest arm
But damn! Man can charm
I imagine changing Him
Forever on law’s right side
Over time, that made no nevermind
Tim's fine. And …
Mostly mine

I hope he really did change… too many times this is merely a hopeful illusion.
Hopeful illusion indeed! 🙂
Excellent title for the poem….and wow to the image! Clever rhyming….I do think it can be hard to change someone…..on the other hand, I believe that, within a couple, each changes a bit for the other and become a new “together”.
Thank you Lillian! I agree!!! If both parties are willing to change, it can make for a better “together.” 🙂
Wow! That’s a giant story to unpack. Damn! I don’t know when I’ve read so much into so few words. Brilliant!
Thank you, Kim! It absolutely makes me feel good you read it that way! 🙂
